Senate Democrats Launch Eleventh-Hour Campaign To Kneecap Jewish State

Anti-Israel protesters flooded Senate building in illegal protest urging members to vote for arms sale block

In the Biden-Harris administration’s eleventh hour, Senate Democrats are launching a campaign against the Jewish state aimed at drumming up support for blocking arms sales to Israel.

Led by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), the congressional offensive consists of three Senate disapproval resolutions that call for an immediate pause in American arms sales to Israel and accuse the United States of supporting mass war crimes in the Gaza Strip. Sanders—along with Sens. Chris Van Hollen (D., Md.), Jeff Merkley (D., Ore.), Peter Welch (D., Vt.), and other top Democrats—held a press conference on Tuesday touting the measures. Around the same time, anti-Israel protesters stormed a Senate office building, demanding lawmakers back the measures.

The Arms Control Export Act, which governs foreign arms sales, does give Congress a mechanism to block sales if both the House and Senate pass disapproval resolutions. But Sanders's resolutions, even if passed by the Senate’s razor-thin Democratic majority, would not block any pending arms sales to Israel, as the deadline to do so has passed.

Question: What percentage of the Jewish vote did Trump get? GOP usually gets 25%.

Claiming there is starvation and famine in Gaza and the West Bank is an insult to people who really are hungry and starving.

Talk about hyperbole. If they hadn’t destroyed the greenhouses, farms and orchards long ago they would be enjoying the produce today.

I don't know. You tell me. I don't know who is tracking those numbers. Interesting thought.

VERY difficult for me to understand why ANY person would support Hamas or Hezbollah! They are a bunch of murderous, thieving bastards!

Israel is doing the right thing by killing as many of them as they can!

Over 50 yrs ago I started working in the ME. When I came home I would tell people about life there. I quit because people could not understand the reality.

Self defeating. Might explain why there was a holocaust.
